Liverpool have spent this window in a way that looks tidy on paper, but football rarely lets you hide behind neat lists. Two defenders have arrived in Jeremy Jacquet and Ronald Araujo, Victor Munoz has been added out wide, and Harvey Elliott is back after a spell away. Yet the conversation that keeps coming back, and for good reason, is the one about Liverpool midfield balance.
That is why the comments from Darragh MacAnthony on talkSPORT land with a bit of force. He has urged Liverpool to go big for Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton before the window shuts, and the case is easy enough to understand when you look at the shape of this squad.

MacAnthony said: "I'd love them to sign Adam Wharton. I think [Alexis] Mac Allister, for me, his legs were gone last year. It was only when he put an Argentina shirt on that his legs reappeared.
"If you could do business there with him going, I think you bring [Wharton] in and you've got a player for the next seven, eight years that will be a starter. He's got so much upside and potential in him. Even if he costs £85m-£100m or whatever else, you're getting the player for the long-term."
